Dell Hybrid Client supports user authentication with Active Directory. Active Directory allows an administrator to enable or disable the user authentication to specific domains. Dell Hybrid Client supports login with Active Directory user. You can also use a smart card to log in as a domain user.
Prerequisites
For Ubuntu 20.04 smart card login, smartcardloginenabler package from Wyse Management Suite must be installed.
Ensure that the DNS server is configured correctly.
Ensure that the date and time of your Dell Hybrid Client are synchronized with the date and time of the domain server. For more information about how to configure date and time using Wyse Management Suite, see,

Auto time zone is enabled and works if Internet is enabled.
